WHAT A WONDERFUL SATURDAY WE HAD PLAYING WITH SOLDER!

Saturday was the Ballerina shadow box class at the house! It was so much fun! Pink trees, glitter, rhinestone.....

These Ladies are such great friends! I can't call them my students anymore they are my friends. I always look forward to teach so I can spend the day with them.

Love you all!
